...you're describing what the SN550 was until they switched from TLC to QLC.

So they downgraded the SN550 and released a new model that's "superior", but actually is just what the SN550 was...

WD is acting really f***ing scummy. Who knows if they're even honouring warranties anymore?

I'd rather buy a Hynix.
